- The xlsb file type is a binary file format used to store Excel spreadsheets. It is a compressed version of the xlsx file type and can only be opened in the Microsoft Excel application. Compared to the xlsx, the xlsb format is much smaller in size and is less prone to corruption.
- A Symbolic Link File (SLK) is a file type used for creating links between files on a computer or network. It is a type of shortcut that allows users to access another file or folder without having to type out the full path. It is similar to an alias in macOS or a symbolic link in Linux and Unix systems.
